WOW!
****, and we still have a ton of cap room. We can extend Deron, have Bropez and really need a wing scorer.
Extending Deron would be the key though, that'll be drama in itself come the summer.
but yea, getting a player arguably better than 'Melo, a guy who the Knicks want(again, won't get uber giddy unless he signs), and not giving all that much...Proky's smiling and kinda giving the middle finger to the Knicks.

but i dont even care about that, we got deronnnnnnn

The big question will of course be if he signs an extension with the Nets. Favors was the Nets potential at a big star in the future, and with him gone there isn't much else outside of Bropez. Even then, Lopez hasn't developed into the big time player people expected. He's a solid piece and should improve with D-Will setting him up but that won't fix the fact that he's soft as **** and can't get a rebound to save his life.

Do the Nets get Brandan Wright in this deal as well? I've seen it both ways. If so he's an interesting minor piece. Pretty efficient scorer in limited minutes, wonder if he could extend that into more play time given the opportunity. Then again I've heard (don't watch enough Golden State to know) that he doesn't give enough effort defensively and given the Warriors aren't exactly the best defensive team in the league...

johnhollinger Deron Williams told me it was not his choice. He is stunned. Declined to do interview until he figures out what it all means.

Lol wtf, this is pretty crazy. Why in the hell would Utah let their HOF coach retire and then trade the franchise player? Seems like Deron doesn't have any desire to re-sign there, sounds pissed off now, and it's not like NJ is a contender.

I don't know why you'd give that up without at least getting a verbal that he'd re-sign with you.

The NJ/GS deal is seperate and still hasn't been completed according the Warriors beat writers who are disputing a lot of the reports out there. I guess the NJ/GS deal is a back up deal for both teams if nothing else happens from here till tomorrow:

MSteinmetzCSN Again, Murphy & 2nd-round pick for Gadzuric, B.Wright not done. It's there if nothing better comes along for either team.

On Be Wright: I been a big fan of his but he has not been able to stay healthy once in his career. He has had some shoulder issues that have bothered him the past few seasons and it does not help that GS has drafted other big guys while he has been recovering pushing him down the bench. Aside from the injury issues he was drafted by the wrong coach to develop under.
You are right effective scorer in limited minutes and actually has pretty nice range at the top of the key. Not as good of a rebounder as you would like for someone with his length could be due to how small his frame is. Solid shotblocker.

I liked Wright a lot in college, and with dealing Favors, we're thin as **** on the front line. We'd have Humphries and Bropez starting with Gadzuric and Petro backing them up...gross. Maybe even Outlol at PF. eww
so Wright would be a sweet get, even if we have to send a 2nd GS's way

enough nets talk. idk if it's been posted but melo will don the #7 jersey.

enough nets talk? the majority of this thread in the past year or so is:
Magic fans
monta ellis
Knick fans
melo drama (more knicks fans, mainly)
not being able to have an opinion because most of us can't dunk over a kia

being the lone nets fan, and just trading for a superstar, the Nets talk shall continue!
